I do believe someone has altered the scene.dat file to correct this problem but i have yet to run this as i believe it may be a stock 1.4 scene.dat and not have any of the alterations in it for ROW.

I made a modification to the scene.dat file (not for ROW- I'll be working on a ROW version next week) to fix the last of sun below the horizon problems not fixed by the 7.12 drivers
Here's the ati scene.dat fix if you're not using ROW- THIS IS ONLY FOR HD SERIES CARDS. The ATi x1xxx cards don't need it. You also need the 7.12 drivers, either ATi or Omega for the HD series cards.

ATi HD3870,3850,2900, and 2600 work with SH4, one issue left- the sun texture is rendered through solid objects. The water rendering is more realistic than Nvidia cards though.
Do NOT get an ATi HD2400. The card is underpowered for SH4 |
I believe i downloaded that very file swdw
however 7.12 drivers dont like my card for some reason, I have downloaded the omega drivers and will check those out at some point.
and yes the water rendering is out of this world
At the moment my card is running these.. ooops forgot mine is the pro version...
Driver Packaging Version 8.401-070725a-050962E-ATI
2D Driver Version 6.14.10.6715
Direct3D Version 6.14.10.0517
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.6747
Catalyst® Control Center Version 2007.0725.2231.38391
These drivers came with the card and run SH4 fine.
I look forward to your ROW modified Scene.dat with anticipation.. no rush just get at it sailor
